Mornington Park Pavillion
Our number one recommendation is the Mornington Park Pavilion. Located on the corner of Flinders Drive and the Esplanade, Mornington, it is part of the Mornington Memorial Park precinct at Schnapper’s Point. This allows you to have both an indoor space, with a large outside grassed area and the Schnapper Point playground. Views are magnificent, looking over the coastline. The hall also comes equipped with a full kitchen, tables and chairs, timber floor, heating, PA system (on prior request) and stage.
Bookings can be made through the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council Community Hall Hire on 5950 1150 or via online form found at www.mornpen.vic.gov.au/Leisure_Tourism/Community_Halls_for_Hire
We often encourage members who don’t want a party at home to combine this hall with a Party Pack from The Frankston Toy Library for a perfect christening or first birthday celebration.
Tootgarook Community Hall
If you are looking for a venue at the Southern end of the Peninsula, take a look at the Tootgarook Community Hall (30 Barry Street). The main hall has a capacity of 180 depending on your set-up requirements and comes with tables and chairs provided, timber floors, heating, ceiling fans and fully equipped kitchen. There is a school next door with a playground in it, and an oval behind the building. The permanent stage is also a favourite for the kids to play on, if you are not using it for a band or DJ.

Balnarring Community Hall
Balnarring Community Hall has a space to suit every need. The main hall has a capacity for 170 and includes tables and chairs, piano, PA system (on prior request), stage, timber floors, heating and a large kitchen. The second hall (capacity 80) also includes tables & chairs, PA system (on prior request), carpeted floors, and shared access to toilets and the kitchenette (with the meeting room that has a capacity for 20 people).
The Balnarring playground is only metres away, as is a large grassed picnic space. There is also ample parking.
